Tolleshunt D'Arcy

Tolleshunt D'Arcy is a tiny village named for the D'Arcy family who held the manor here for centuries, and it has the slightly faded grandeur that suggests a place with more history than present day significance. The parish church is the notable landmark, a substantial medieval building that dominates the village centre. The village itself is small and quiet, a handful of houses around the church and a country lane or two, the sort of place that exists in the gap between proper rural isolation and anything approaching a service centre. It is peaceful and unpretentious, with the air of a place that has been quietly itself for a very long time.
